(Why) Should I learn a new programming language?@DonalFellows : I think we have some "mental processes" that are not expressible through words. But I don't call those "thoughts", but "feeling", "reflexes", "intuitions" etc. I think a proper thought must be expressable in terms of some sort of language. So to me something that doesn't have a language can lives, processes, react, feel ... but not think. But this is a belief, based on intuition, not any real evidence. And also a bit off-topic, really :)

Absolute statements in IT that are wrongIt's probably true in the case of C++ ; I've been learning it for 20 years, and I still find rules and exceptions and whatnot.When I finish learning it, I'll probably know all the other languages already. Hence, trivial to learn.
